To clarify, since it's not obvious in the UI, you have to click the timestamp of the comment, and then you can favorite it.

afaik, pretty much any user-agent changer works. At least that's what one of my colleagues uses to join MS Teams meetings on Firefox. Simply switch your user-agent to Chrome, and it should do the trick.

On Android, it's one of the very few allowed ones, Google Search Fixer[1].
